reason-1. USA (and its allied forces) wanted to punish Japan and Japan to be capitulized; reason-2 to show USA has acheived a real explodable atomic bomb
reason-3 USA to see the after effects of bomb blast
2nd Answer:
None of the above is true. The two bombs were dropped to prevent mass death when the allies invaded Japan (because she would not surrender). In other words, to force Japan to surrender. They did not surrender after the first bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, and a second bomb was dropped on Nagasaki.
At this point a huge allied invasion force was within two weeks of invading Japan. Huge numbers of allied and Japanese military would have died had the invasion taken place, along with millions of Japanese citizens. Secondly, a number of Japanese cities had endured thousands of incendiary bombs being dropped. This was called fire bombing. Tokyo was the main target, and it was nearly destroyed from the ensuing fires. Many more military and civilians were killed and injured than by the two bombs.
After the war ended, a number of Japanese Navy higher-ups stated that the dropping of the two bombs saved millions of lives, and they were happy that their country was never invaded militarily.
